not sure if the club do this as a general thing, as otherwise they would be inundated with shirts etc.

They should do it as part of their merchandising. Framed shirts etc are huge business in Australia. I emailed the club last year suggesting autographed framed shirts would generate more revenue than selling off shirts cheaply at the end of their lifespan. No response.

If you take it down to the training ground at Orrell and ask there if you could leave it to be signed I'm sure the players would do it.

I took the calandar for St Pats to be done and there was no problem. You can only ask.
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

The biggest Room is the Room for improvement.

The best form of defence is attack!!
